    Mentoring and Coaching

    We specialise in mentoring and coaching clients to improve their lives, by helping them make the changes needed to reach their goals, whether personal or professional. In particular, we are experienced in career mentoring and coaching, and health and wellbeing coaching.

    Mentoring and coaching differ from counselling in many ways, and are primarily focussed on the present and the future, without delving too much into the past.

    Mentoring and coaching services are provided in blocks (eg, 6, 10 or 20 sessions).

Free consultation

We offer a free 20-minute initial consultation via telephone or online for all potential clients.

During the initial consultation, we will discuss what your general needs are, what service might be appropriate, what it would entail, and what you can expect from us.

The initial conversation is designed to see if we are a good ‘fit’ and if the relationship if right for you. Every individual is unique and the therapeutic relationship should make you feel comfortable.
